Cute girl studying for MCATs in a coffee shop, can't let this one pass up

If you're lucky, you will get a text back saying she can't make it tonight but would like to meet for lunch some time. You had her locked and loaded, but you got too ambitious. If it doesn't work out, just get the girl's number next time, wait a few days, and set something up for a later date.

"I'll text you later" can easily mean "have a nice life." But, I hope it works out for you. You certainly did what you could so far. I think you should have come up with something other than a random bonfire tonight, like, an actual date, but up til then you were going great.

"Doing great" by posting a picture of the girl and providing her name and age? If anyone who knows this girl ever stumbles across this thread and alerts her, coffee shop girl will think that the OP is a complete creep.

My word get over yourself lady. You don't have to constantly bring up how superior YOU are in this thread. It's not about YOU.

She's inferior. Some women who lead very boring, ugly lives don't have guys coming up to them in coffee shops.

I can't believe I came back here. I admit I wondered if the teenagers would be bashing me.

I am not making it about me at all. I am making it about YOU and your cowardice. Looks like I hit a nerve :)

This is the first time I've come on Letsrun since college and I think I'll make it my last. Good luck with life!

The fact that you have debated it this long means you have very little chance of making it work.

I tried telling him he is a sad little beta, but instead of reflecting on himself he lashed out. I feel sad for him.

This. If I was her I wouldn't meet you out tonight just based on the principle of getting asked the afternoon of the occasion. I wouldn't want you to think it was Saturday night and I had nothing going on.

Hence,she probably won't text. No problem. Just text her in a couple days and ask her out for an actual date. If she is interested in you she will reply and set something up.

BTW, took you a couple hours to go up to her, but good work. Also, nice job snapping the pic and posting.

so, what were you doing in a coffee shop for like 3 hours??

That is where he made a critical error by not getting her number.

Yes, they're "friends" on facebook, but who wants to message someone they gave their number to after not getting texted for several days?

He should have taken her number down and skipped the facebook thing.

The pic proves nothing. This dude sounds like Patrick Bateman or that mass shooter that hated women. A "lake party" WTF. She'll defriend you and you'll be left with your d1ck in your hands

I was going to think this was fake until you actually came through with a pic. Now, I'm not sure. If it is, well done trolling attempt and beautiful story. If it's real, then extra props for coming through and good luck.

I too hope jamin reads all of this.

Just got home. Did some thinking on the drive.

But first, I swear that I lived this entire encounter out through the thread, I provided my exact line of thought and I thank those of you who gave me encouragement. I kind of used the thread as a commitment that I was going to follow through.

Moving forward, I especially want Jamin to take note of what happened with the blonde barista. I'll be honest, most of you would have probably thought the barista was better looking than the MCAT girl. The barista was VERY attractive but MCAT girl was more my type though so I thought she was better.

Jamin, while I had my sights set on the MCAT girl, I not only used the barista girl to gauge where things were at with the MCAT girl but also chatted it up with another really attractive girl with no hesitation at all. See how that works, Jamin? Given the situation, small talk with the barista set up a competitive scenario. The results secured that the MCAT girl wanted attention too. She was watching the entire time.

I work in a very stimulating profession and use one of my degrees as a strong backbone for it. But at times I feel that I am "slipping" and not as "sharp" as when I was in school so I hit up coffee shops. Plus, I had been looking for a good coffee shop in the area, both quiet and studious, and this came at the recommendation of a former bar owner who owns the coffee shop.

Quite the little haven for attractive girls 20-25. Great find. Will be going back again.

I quickly pulled out a white post-it note from my computer bag, wrote down my first name and my number and stuck it in my pocket for later use.

...

Before she left, I pulled the white post it note out of my pocket and said I knew of a lake party tonight and here's my number if you'd like to hang out. Said it was really nice to meet her. She smiled and just left.

SO BETA.

Only a zero of a girl would respond to a zero of a move like this. Sorry if it offends you to hear this.

I am a FAR cry from a beta male. Go back to your beer belly boyfriend and his stinky balls.

Happy with how things went.

Low standards.

Are you the real Cronje, the 800 man?

Anyway, you're right that this guy seems pretty unpracticed. My girlfriend ("female note" above) showed me this for laughs. It is pretty cute how are he is trying. I remember being at his stage when I was 18, and how much easier it got. Keep trying, little buddy!

Why are you still here? I thought you left. Looks like no matter how superior you think you are, you just can't get away.

You're right! I can't look away from the littlest train wreck here. It is like an anthropological study, kind of like overhearing two awkward people on a first date.

My BF agrees you are super beta.

YOU?

You sounds like a nervous teenager. Reading all of this now, if it wasn't for the car I would have assumed you were 15. You took four hours to give a girl your number (the most beta of closes) and are saying you feel you could get LESS sharp? LOL.

good job. But do you have three eyeballs or a crooked eye, how did you know she was looking at you while chatting up the barista?

Clearly, you and your dog barf faced girlfriend have no clue about top 25-school educations.

If someone is studying for a post-graduate test like the MCAT you let them stay focused so you don't come off as rude. That's what she came to the coffee shop for. She was in the zone. I had a gut instinct given all the books out on the table and her time of arrival (shortly after mine) that she would stay until close to dinner time.

If you were in that coffee shop room I was in earlier and you were me, you would have felt the eyes on you and the curiosity built up from all parties involved. When the barista came over to wash the table next to me and we were the only ones in the room, the MCAT girl watched the barista like a hawk. It may not sound eventful but it was.
